myself takes 1 stroke to write in cursive — m-y-s-e-l-f in one continuous stroke. The animation below draws it on the writing lines exactly the way children practice it in Scribble; trace it after, then take the worksheet to paper.

Size is what makes myself readable: tall l and f, midline-height m, s, and e, and below-the-line y and f. Uneven heights are the most common mistake, so check each letter against its lines.

How the letters in myself connect

Follow the joins as you write myself: m ends on an undercurve that carries into the overcurve opening of y; y ends on an overcurve that carries into the undercurve opening of s; s ends on an undercurve that carries into the undercurve opening of e; e ends on an undercurve that carries into the undercurve opening of l; l ends on an undercurve that carries into the undercurve opening of f.
